Do you always remove the fuzzy skin from kiwifruit before eating it? The next time you have it, wait for a second!
Studies say that every part of the kiwifruit, including the fuzzy skin, is edible.
This is true of all 60 species of kiwi, though their skins have different textures and consistencies.
Kiwi skins are a good source of fibre, antioxidants that fight free radicals and folate.
Opt for gold kiwis, scrub off their fuzz and have them if you are new to eating the fruit with its skin.
However, those with a history of kidney stones shouldn't eat kiwi, as its high oxalate content can trigger stones in some people.
